- Description (Brief)
- Labels are an important marketing device. They often go beyond merely identifying contents and are designed to help establish brand distinction and generate customer loyalty for a largely interchangeable product.
- This Falls brand apple fruit crate label was used by Chelan Falls Orchards of Chelan Falls, Washington during the early 20th century. The lithographed label was produced by the Traung Label Company of Seattle, Washington. The label has an illustration of a river going down a mountain through several falls, with a rainbow crossing the river and orchards in the background. Fruit crate labels often depicted landscapes like this to evoke the idea of rich, natural produce.
